> 1. did XSM hooks are placed in the source code of xen manually?

Yes.

> 2. how to identify security-critical operation? 

This is why the answer to 1 is yes. It requires reasoning about what different 
security policies might want to enforce, what might be exploitable or could lead 
to convert channels, etc.

> 3. does the XSM hooks cover all the operations completely?

Probably not. Certainly not with new features, anyway.
